PhailMage is fail

I could do it over the lake, probably over the canals as well, but where is the challenge in that.

Anyway, I am a Mage.

Mages have tools to deal with falling.

I could gracefully float to the ground like a feather.

I could blink myself to the ground (or a safer space as I did last night when knocked back by the fire elementals in Bastion of Twilight (yeah it was intentional… I decided I would take one for the team, but as that lava at the side of the stairs was coming up fast I hit blink to find myself back in the pack on the stairs).

I could even, as a last resort, hit Iceblock. An icicle is still a better option that minced meat.

I could, but then I would be doing the guild a disservice wouldn’t I?

At over 8gold per skydive, it’s worth me taking one, or more, for the team while skydoving.

wow Gnomer – I’m very tempted to copy this idea, perhaps even expand it into a guild-game. You could run a competition were folks have to aim for a certain pool of lava in the blasted lands from 5000 feet up.

Or they have to create a death path of toons from the mailbox to AH entry using alts.

Mmmm the average plate wearer is meant to be a little mentally challenged right… Maybe I should do a superman, convince them they wont get hurt, take them up and watch them splat while I float to the ground…

I, like you, love to fall in WoW. I’ve been jumping off things for as long as I can remember. My first big jump was off the Dam in Loch Modan (back when there was water in the Loch). I was questing with my buddy and my wife and I saw the fall and just went for it. They were confused; had I made a mistake?

Nope. Just wanted to go for it.

My favorite fall was from the top of the tower in Dalaran all the way to the ground in Crystalsong. It’s a beautiful, long fall.

When I was doing Loremaster, I never went around mountains, I always went to the top and slowfalled off… most of the time I overshot the mark and it probably took longer to get to my destination… but I was flying.

I also like to encourage people to jump off the Lumber Mill in AB. I have a Macro that says “You have Slow Fall, jump you wont feel a thing”

Sometimes I give them more than the macro… like Slow fall for instance…
